Framed Photography of 'Concorde - Return to Filton' by John D. Hayward

This item is a professionally framed aviation photograph capturing the iconic supersonic Concorde aircraft in flight above a stark, perspective-heavy landscape of tracks or runways. The image is rendered in atmospheric tones, primarily featuring a muted grayscale palette with deep shadows and high-contrast lighting. Centrally positioned in the upper half of the composition is the white silhouette of the Concorde with its distinctive delta wings. The photograph is mounted within a wide, off-white archival-style matboard and housed in a modern, slim-profile black wooden or composite frame. Visible text beneath the image includes the signature area on the left (likely 'John Hayward') and the title 'Concorde - Return to Filton' followed by a date, possibly 2003, which marks the historic final flight of the aircraft to its birthplace. The print appears to be a high-quality lithograph or digital C-type print. While the glazing/glass shows significant household reflections (including a lamp and salt rock), the visible portion of the print appears to be in excellent condition with no signs of foxing, sunlight fading, or moisture damage. The sharp lines of the matting suggest professional assembly, which serves to protect the paper from direct contact with the glass. This piece represents a significant moment in aviation history, documented through a contemporary artistic lens characteristic of late 20th to early 21st-century commemorative photography.
